Qualitative colormaps
---------------------

Colorbrewer's qualitative/discrete colormaps ("Accent", "Dark2", "Paired",
"Pastel1", "Pastel2", "Set1", "Set2", "Set3") are now implemented as
``ListedColormap`` instead of ``LinearSegmentedColormap``.

To use these for images where categories are specified as integers, for
instance, use::

plt.imshow(x, cmap='Dark2', norm=colors.NoNorm())

Qualitative colormaps
---------------------

ColorBrewer's "qualitative" colormaps ("Accent", "Dark2", "Paired",
"Pastel1", "Pastel2", "Set1", "Set2", "Set3") were intended for discrete
categorical data, with no implication of value, and therefore have been
converted to ``ListedColormap`` instead of ``LinearSegmentedColormap``, so
the colors will no longer be interpolated and they can be used for
choropleths, labeled image features, etc.
